The battle against the skeletons did not last long, one of my chaos army succumbed, but another jabbed at the jewel in a boney skull neatly shattering it and the bones crumbled to dust, knowing this we proceeded to smash the gems and thus prevented the skeletons from reforming.
Gathering the gem dust, we proceeded onwards but finding empty rooms, some had destruction and desecration, none having much to find or fight, one did have a grimaced body wearing a necklace and carrying coins, after our encounter with the snake, we wondered what this poor fool had stumbled onto.
The labyrinth unfolded before us, one door with slime, another with a warning, and another with levers that opened more doors, thoughtfully some of us remained by the levers as the doors eventually closed, which would have entrapped some of the dwarves.
As is the nature of this wretched mass of tombs, the dwarves stumbled on a pit trap, sustaining minor bruises, at this point we decided another direction was needed to find the foes that would lift the curse.
With one of my number now perished, and another refusing to venture with us, I did have time to consider my financial situation, the scripture of Mar Nod often tells us of those who are destined for greatness and those who are merely stepping stones on the path that others find greatness, and his mighty randomness never reveals all, beware ye who think they are following the path, lest ye feel a sturdy foot from behind pressing you into the dust.
